Once you figure that out, THEN....

This is probably one of the best things you can do with a fretboard chart.



So let's say you wanna know everywhere you can play in any given position in E minor. So you know those notes are

E, F#, G, A, B, C, D, E right? And you know the relative major is G which is

G, A, B, C, D, E, F#, G yes?

So map every available note in that key out on each string over the first octave.
Low E open, 2nd fret, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 12. And so on. all the way up to the 12th fret on each string. Then you'll notice those little "box" patterns and shit you already knew, but didn't know how to connect the dots...congrats, you just did!

Figured I'd post the exotic scale section before we get to stuff like arpeggios.
